Jim Lang has assisted and advised us on a number of legal transactions from real estate to trusts to general personal law. We have never considered ourselves high touch; however, Jim has always given us the attention that I would have previously assumed a lawyer would only provide for a client with a high number of billable hours. He takes the time to explain complex issues and treats us with sincere respect. We have found our long term counsel to help us navigate life.

Trust and heart are the two words that I will use to describe working with Jim Lang. I trust Mr. Lang to do a great job for me, and let me know up front what my legal fees will total. In the past, he has given me the option to do some of the legal work myself in order to stay within my budget. Mr. Lang also has a heart. He understands life's many ups and downs. I felt that he was really on my side, that he was concerned about me, and how I was doing with my new business. Mr. Lang is an outstanding lawyer but more importantly, Mr. Lang is a good man. I highly recommend him. Liz

Mr. Lang came highly recommend to me from a business colleague. He provided me with prompt, accurate and effective legal services regarding restructuring several of my companies. He listened to what my objectives were and provided sound advice. He is a rare commodity in the legal profession in that he truly listens to his clients and looks at all aspects of the case. I highly recommend Mr. Lang and his team.

Jim has worked with our company for more than six years. I have always found him to have outstanding integrity, a strong commitment to our company, an extraordinary understanding of the law and the resources to bring forth the best legal advice to our complicated business needs. Our small business is stronger due to Jim Lang being our professional, legal advocate.

Jim Lang represented my company in the Chesapeake Circuit Court for a heavy equipment manufacturing defect. His engineering background and perseverance provided him with a keen ability to find qualified expert witnesses. Our case was settled favorably one day prior to court after many months of litigation and depositions.

I am very happy with the legal work that Jim Lang has provided to me and my business. I have used Jim for many business questions and personal issues also. Whenever asked about legal questions I always recommend talking with him. We have used him for about five years..

I met Mr. Lang a few years ago when I was in need of an attorney for my divorce (one of my friends referred him). Since that time I not only have I used Mr. Lang for my personal legal issues, but also my business legal issues. He reviewed and updated my contracts, he's helped with an employee / labor board issue (we won!), and any and all other issues I've had (legally). He has always been very professional in every instance, and always returned my phone calls in a timely manner. I have referred all my friends and family to him too! Just an all around great guy!

Jim has provided legal counsel for my company for years. Jim is more than just an excellent attorney, he is also a valued and trusted business advisor. I have always found Jim to be very responsive and his ability to review literally hundreds of documents and quickly determine the relevant facts and get to the heart of the matter is a core strength. He has also been able to leverage his background and experience to provide us with business advice to not only help us grow our business, but also avoid some major pitfalls. I highly recommend him.

Jim Lang has represented my company and myself in litigation several times. These were events that occurred at years of doing business of no fault of my own. I can not express the relief of having Jim by my side. The courtroom is not a place I like to find myself. He was very knowledgeable, professional, and understanding. He explained all my options and even what was going to occur before it happened. He knew what opposing council was going to do like as if he read their notes. I never at any time felt my decision for him to represent me was a wrong decision. I know sometimes life has a way of creating issues beyond your control. These issues can be handled in and a lot of times out of court. I know as long as James (JIm) Lang is my attorney I sleep better at night for those what if's life sometimes throws at you.

My company has engaged Jim and his firm, Pender & Coward on multiple occasions in the past few years. Our primary engagement was for business and government contracting concerns and Jim provided us with prompt, accurate and effective legal services in all cases. He is responsive and has a keen ability to understand the issues. When we were in need of a specialist his firm has a deep bench of legal talent to draw from. I will continue to reach out to Jim as my first choice for legal services.

We have worked with Mr. Lang several times in the past 2 years. He was always very professional and provided superior service. He always follows up even after transactions are completed to make sure everyone is happy. Highly recommend!
